You're right, in a manner of speaking. Still, and I know because a friend of mine did it, that it is quite possible to write an alarm clock program with the Jaws scripting language. In fact, if anybody tried one of the later builds of the Napster scripts that Napster released before they went under, you probably used the program. Well, actually I don't know if that build was ever officially released, but this friend of mine was getting paid by Napster to write scripts for their program, and he added the feature to one of his final editions of the scripts. (Boy, that was unnecessarily long winded wasn't it?)
